Not a book on the planet that will give more info than this place. I would search for suspension threads here on the forum.
Also the 1976 AIM.... assembly instruction manual, is a must have for any corvette repair with exploded views and torque specs of everything.
Good luck with it, a new suspension will make a world of difference.

Would have to agree. I've been lurking around on this forum on and off for over 15 years. Sometimes I ask questions.
Sometimes I answer them and sometimes I post up How to articles.
Bottom line. You won't find more information about your C3 and how to repair and modify it then right here.
Ask away!

No one source is sufficient. I would recommend three sources, the GM Chevrolet Corvette AIM (Assembly Instruction Manual), the NCRS 3rd Edition of its Technical Information Manual; and of course this forum. You cannot beat the collective expertise of the members that frequent the forum.
Hope this helps!

2) Chevrolet Chassis Service Manual $35.00
3) Chevrolet Chassis Overhaul Manual $28.00
4) Motor Manual $10.00
5) Corvette Technical Information and Judging Guide $75.00
6) 0OSOEZ Wiring Guides $50.00
Bonus Items
1) Chevrolet Corvette Parts and Illustration Catalog 1953 to 1982 $75.00 (for paper)
2) Haynes Automotive Heating and Air Conditioning Manual $15.00

I adjust the above library based on what year Vette I own, currently on #10 so my library gets kind of full. I'm a manual and tool *****.
